Transitioning your shoots into Sprout Studio

How to transition your previously booked shoots from other systems into Sprout Studio

Written by Justin Morabito Updated over a week ago

Transitioning your already-booked shoots from other systems into Sprout Studio is simple! First, you'll need to make a decision about how you'll transition the package/order for each shoot you're transitioning.

You need to decide if:

You want the package for each shoot you're transitioning to be used later in Sprout for other shoots, or ...

You want to just add each shoot you're transitioning with a one-off custom package.

The main reason to go with option #1 is if the package, products and/or services are ones you still offer or that you offer regularly. If you want to track how many times you've sold a specific package, product or service for all of the past shoots you're transitioning, then you'll want to transition your shoots using method #1 below.

If you are ok to not have the historical tracking of packages, products and services and are ok with the quicker option of transitioning all your existing shoots with one-off custom packages, then you'll want to transition your shoots using method #2 below.

Transitioning your shoot and track the package

As mentioned above, using this method will allow you to track the package and use it for analytics in the future. This method will take a bit longer than method #2 - approximately 5 minutes per shoot you transition.

For each shoot you're transitioning, you'll need to first set up the package, then add the shoot and then move over the contract.
